172 Owners

[S3DBW]

Hi,

If you own one of the current model 172s, could you do me a favour. Could you check your spare wheel and see if there is a renault part number stamped on it! I want a spare for my Cup and my renault dealer is not being particularly helpful.

Thanks very much

172 has a full size alloy as a spare so i doubt you want one of those, either get another cup wheel or make do without. and welcome to the club mate

Mate try http://www.cliospares.co.ukwww.cliospares.co.uk

sourcing a spare through renault might be costly

they just got 2 172s in

its just the standard 172 alloy mate

Thanks for the replies, As I previously owned a Clio 2 !6V which had a steel spare, I assumed it would have been similar in all the Clios. I didnt reckon Renault were lavish enough to provide 5 Alloys.

Thanks for the welcome, forum site looks good with plenty of discussion on just about all topics.

regards, and thanks again for the replies

neither did the bloke at renault.. who asked me if my steel spare was alright.. I replied all 172s come with another alloy as standard..he just said "wow, didnt think we would do that".. lol

The inital MK1 172s came with an alloy spare, then the tight arses at Renault replaced this with a steel wheel for later MK1s and only went back to an alloy spare with the MK2 172.
